ImagBurn on ubuntu: ‘No device detected’ error message

[Ankit Pawar]

Well my computer is powered by ubuntu. Recently I have installed ImgBurn on my computer. I found that ImgBurn is not detecting cd drive. I tried to configure Wine but it does not worked for me at all. If you are having any speculation then let me know about the same.

You can installed ImgBurn by using Wine but it does not working with the hardware. As far as I know the Wine C drive is virtual system. see there are other application insted ImgBurn. There is already native Linux app available for burning off disk.which is great to use

Ok can you tell me if you know any of the native Linux app for the purpose of image burning then suggest the same as early as possible.

As far as I know you can use Brasero or k3b. however k3b seems to be more powerful software. The brasero is default disk burning tool in Gnome. In case you are not satisfied with Brasero then you can go for Brasero. I let you know that k3b is designed for KDE but it is working well on gnome desktop as well.

Well I managed to resolve the issue of mine by doing below mentioned thing.
I downloaded the latest version of ImgBurn on my computer.
After that I listed console the DVD drive as follow.

clee@clee-laptop:~$ ll /dev |grep dvd
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2011-04-24 23:30 dvd -> sr0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2011-04-24 23:30 dvdrw -> sr0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 60 2011-04-24 19:29 pktcdvd/
clee@clee-laptop:~$

from the wine configuration I clicked on Drives tab I have set drive to point to /dev/sr0 and clicked on Advanced in order to select CD-ROM for drive type.

Imgburn I went for Tools and selected Device. you will get the options how to interact with the drive so you have to select ASPI.

Even there is more easy to way to do the above mentioned thing without doing any changes in winecfg.
You have to go for Tools and click on Settings and click on I/O and Change interface to ASPI.
Finally click on Done and restart ImgBurn if required.
You will get below mentioned log.

Another solution I recommend which you can give a try.

winecfg # crack this open

you have to go for drives tab and add new drives.

/media
 /media/cdrom1
 /media/cdrom2

For above mentioned drives you have to set as CD-ROM and those should not be autodetected with advanced options. You can set Wine to run as windows nt4.0 or nt3.5.

[JustineBB]

After going through the problem I am suggesting below solution which might work for you.
You have to make prefix directory.

$ mkdir /home/<username>/.local/share/wineprefixes/dvd

After that make wine prefix

$ env WINEPREFIX="/home/<username>/.local/share/wineprefixes/dvd" wineboot –u

Now set windows NT3.5 version and add DVD drive.

$ env WINEPREFIX="/home/<username>/.local/share/wineprefixes/dvd" winecfg

From GUI you have to click on Application tab and change version to NT 3.5. now click on Drives Tab and you have to add dvd drive.
Once done you should install ImgBurn

$ env WINEPREFIX="/home/<username>/.local/share/wineprefixes/dvd" wine /path/to/setup/installer/exe/or/m

Once you have done you will be able to run ImgBurn without affecting other application in Wine. You should create prefixes of wine for every single app which will requires particular setting to run Wine. It would also helpful for copy protection solution which is looking for the harddisk volume name of C drive. in case you have installed winetricks then you will be able to set prefix as well as adjust the settings.
